Apple Watch Series 4 vs Series 3 - Full Comparison!

The Apple Watch Series 4: A Revolutionary Upgrade

One of the most notable features of the Apple Watch Series 4 is its emergency SOS function, which now includes fall detection with Apple watch series 4. This means that users can now receive assistance from emergency services even if they haven't explicitly pressed the SOS button, and will also be able to detect when they have fallen and alert friends or family members for help. We were able to set up our Series 4 watch quickly and easily, which was a welcome change compared to setting up our previous Apple watches.

Another exciting feature of the Series 4 is its live watch faces, which are now available on both the new watch and older models using WatchOS 5. The new faces are designed to take advantage of the curved edges of the Series 4 display, creating a more immersive experience for users. We were able to customize our face with ease, switching between different options and adjusting settings to suit our preferences. One of the standout features of the Series 4 watch faces is their haptic feedback, which provides a subtle vibration when scrolling through menus or changing settings.

One of the key design changes in the Series 4 is its slimmer crown, which makes it easier to scroll through menus without feeling like you're missing out on notifications. The side button is also now flush with the watch face, giving it a sleeker look and feel compared to previous models. We were able to load up the same photo on both our Series 3 and Series 4 watches and compare the displays, noting that the newer model has slightly more surface area despite being smaller.

Another significant upgrade in the Series 4 is its louder speaker, which provides better audio quality for making calls or using the walkie-talkie feature. We were able to test out Siri's voice with ease, and noted that the volume was significantly louder than on our Series 3 watch. This will be a major improvement for users who want to make calls or use other voice-activated features without feeling like they're missing something.

The Series 4 also boasts a new processor and GPU, which provides twice the performance compared to the Series 3. This means that users can expect faster app loading times, smoother animations, and a more responsive overall experience. Additionally, the Series 4 supports LTE connectivity on both the front and back of the watch, providing better reception for calls.

One of the most exciting features of the Series 4 is its electrocardiogram (ECG) function, which allows users to take an ECG reading directly from their wrist. While this feature is not yet enabled on all Series 4 watches, it will be available soon and promises to revolutionize the way we monitor our heart health. The ECG feature uses a combination of sensors and algorithms to detect irregular heart rhythms and alert users to any potential issues.

Overall, the Apple Watch Series 4 is an impressive upgrade that offers a host of exciting new features and improvements compared to previous models. If you don't already have an Apple watch, we highly recommend investing in the Series 4 – it's worth paying the extra price for the latest and greatest technology. Whether you're looking to stay healthy, monitor your fitness goals, or simply want the latest and greatest smartwatch on the market, the Series 4 is an excellent choice.

For those who already own a Series 3 watch, we recommend upgrading to the Series 4 as soon as possible. The new features and improvements are significant enough that it's worth making the upgrade, even if it means paying a premium price. Additionally, many users will appreciate the improved performance, louder speaker, and more streamlined design of the Series 4.

Whether you're an avid fitness enthusiast or just looking for a stylish smartwatch to wear every day, the Apple Watch Series 4 is an excellent choice. With its impressive list of features, sleek design, and user-friendly interface, it's no wonder that this watch has already generated so much buzz in the tech community.

and I could tell that it is smaller but technically the new screen is a little bit larger and on the back we now have a full ceramic design with an updated sensor array the straps are included in a different package so comparing the exterior the speakers are now larger and they take up the whole left hand side on the series 4 and the microphone is actually moved instead of 2 little ports it's on the right hand side and just a single port that's between the crown and the button Apple did this to reduce echoing during calls even though series 4 is larger if you have a 38 millimeter and you're upgrading to a 40 your previous Apple watch straps will work same thing if you're going from a 42 to a 44 during the process we now have this new screen about heart health which is going to give us a notification if our heart rate is too low or too high we also have the emergency SOS function which now includes fall detection with Apple watch series 4 so we are finished that was much faster than setting up my previous Apple watches so there you have it we're all set up let's go ahead and check out some of those new awesome live watch faces as I'm scrolling through these watch faces I get that
